xStack® DGS-3620 Series Layer 3 Managed Stackable Gigabit Switch CLI Reference Guide Chapter 1 Using the Command Line Interface The DGS-3620 Layer 3 stackable Gigabit Ethernet switch series are members of the D-Link xStack® family. Ranging from 10/100/1000Mbps edge switches to core gigabit switches, the xStack® switch family has been future-proof designed to provide a stacking architecture with fault tolerance, flexibility, port density, robust security and maximum throughput with a user-friendly management interface for the networking professional. The Switch can be managed through the Switch's serial port, Telnet, SNMP or the Web-based management agent. The Command Line Interface (CLI) can be used to configure and manage the Switch via the serial port or Telnet interfaces. This manual provides a reference for all of the commands contained in the CLI. Every command will be introduced in terms of purpose, format, description, parameters, and examples. Configuration and management of the Switch via the Web-based management agent are discussed in the Web UI Reference Guide. For detailed information on installing hardware please also refer to the Harware Installation Guide. 1-1 Accessing the Switch via the Serial Port The Switch's serial port's default settings are as follows:  115200 baud  no parity  8 data bits  1 stop bit A computer running a terminal emulation program capable of emulating a VT-100 terminal and a serial port configured as above is then connected to the Switch's serial port via an RJ-45 to RS232 DB-9 convertor cable. With the serial port properly connected to a management computer, the following screen should be visible.
